PRODUCTION DATA
There are three reset mechanisms in the device: a power-on reset (POR), a RESET pin, and the SW_RST command that can be sent through the either the SPI or by UBM.
When power is first applied to the device, a POR circuit holds the device in reset until all supplies reach the specified operating voltages. The power-on reset returns the device to a known operating state in case a brownout event occurs (when the supplies have dipped below the minimum operating voltages). The POR starts all digital circuits in reset as the supply settles, and releases them to make sure that the device starts in the default condition and loads the OTP memory. After the OTP memory has been loaded, the ALARM pin is released. At this time, communication with the device is safe. This tPOR time is less than 100 µs.
The devices also have a RESET pin that is used as a hardware reset to the device. Send the RESET pin low for a minimum of 100 ns (tRESET) to reset the device. A delay time of 10 μs (tRESETWAIT) is required before sending the first serial interface command as the device latches and releases the reset. The release of the internal reset state is synchronized to the internal clock. The RESET pin resets the SPI and the UART interfaces, the HART FIFO buffer, the watchdog timer, the internal oscillator, and the device registers. RESET does not reload the OTP memory.
The command to RESET.SW_RST = 0xAD resets the device as a software reset. The command is decoded at the rising edge of CS with an SPI command or during the stop bit of the last character of a UBM frame. Set UBM.REG_MODE again to put the device back into UBM when resetting the device in UBM. After sending the RESET command, no delay time is required before sending the first serial interface command as the device latches and releases the reset. The reset is synchronized to the falling edge of the internal clock and is released well before the next rising edge. The ALARM pin pulses low for the width of the internal reset. This pulse duration is less than 20 ns. This command resets the SPI and the UART interface, the HART FIFO, and the watchdog timer, but does not reset the internal oscillator. The software reset also reloads internal factory trim registers if properly configured in the SPECIAL_CFG register. The SPECIAL_CFG register is only reset with a POR.
The POR and hardware reset place the internal oscillator into a reset condition, which holds the clock low. When these two signals are released, there is a delay of a few microseconds before the first rising edge of the clock. The hardware reset, RESET, pulse width must be at least 100 ns to allow the oscillator to properly reset. The SW_RST command is a short pulse. This pulse is not long enough to adequately reset the oscillator. The SW_RST is asserted with a falling edge of the clock. As a result of the long oscillator period, the design architecture provides that all devices are out of reset by the next rising edge.
